+First of all, there are 4 services included in the deployment:
 
 - database: `postgress` and `mysql` are supported, you may choose one of them or any other compatible DBS like cloud-based systems. You should follow the document from the database to make it secure.
-- grafana: you are likely to use it most of the time, browsing built-in dashboards, and creating your own customized metric. grafana supports [User Management](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/user-management/), please follow the official document to set it up based on your need.
-- devlake: this is the core service for Data Collection and Metric Calculation, all collected/calculated data would be stored to the database, and accessed by the `grafana` service. `devlake` itself doesn't support User Management of any kind, so we don't recommend that you expose its port to the outside world.
-- config-ui: a web interface to set up `devlake` to do the work. You may set up some automated `blueprint` and let it be. `config-ui` supports `Basic Authentication`, by simply set up the Environment Variable `ADMIN_USER` and `ADMIN_PASS` for the container. There are commented lines in `config-ui.environment` section in our `docker-compose.yml` file for your convenience.

 In General, we suggest that you reduce the Attack Surface as small as possible.
 
 
 ### Internal Deployment (Recommended)
 
-- database: remove the `ports` if you don't need to access the database directly
-- devlake: remove the `ports` section. If you want to call the API directly, do it via `config-ui/api` endpoint.
-- grafana: we have no choice but to expose the `ports` for people to browse the dashboards. However, you may want to set up the User Management, and a read-only database account for `grafana`

 - config-ui: Normally, exposing the `ports` with `Basic Authentication` is sufficient for Internal Deployment, you may choose to remove the `ports` and use techniques like `k8s port-forwarding` or `expose-port-when-needed` to enhance the security. Keep in mind config-ui is NOT designed to be used by many people, and it shouldn't be. Do NOT grant access if NOT necessary.
